HMC387MS8 387MS8E / v02.0705 HIGH IP3 GaAs MMIC MIXER, 450 - 500 MHz Typical Applications Features High Dynamic Range Infrastructure: Input IP3: +32 dBm • GSM 450 & GSM 480 Conversion Loss: 9.5 dB • CDMA 450 Low External Part Count E • Private Land Mobile Radio Ultra Small MSOP8 Package: 14.8 mm2 9 Included in the HMC-DK003 Designer’s Kit T Functional Diagram General Description T M E The HMC387MS8 & HMC387MS8E are high dynamic S range passive MMIC mixers in plastic surface mount - 8 lead Mini Small Outline Packages (MSOP) covering 3 L 450 to 500 MHz. Excellent input IP3 performance P of +32 dBm for down conversion and +29 dBm for I H up conversion is provided for both GSM/CDMA O G based cellular and Private Land Mobile Radio I applications at an LO drive of +17 dBm. The mixer H also has excellent performance with as little as - +13 dBm LO drive yielding a +30 dBm input IP3. S S With a 1 dB compression of +22 dBm, the RF port R will accept a wide range of input signal levels. E Conversion loss is 9.5 dB typical. The DC to 150 X B MHz IF frequency response will satisfy many cel- I M lular transmit or receive frequency plans. The HMC387MS8(E) input IP3 performance coupled with its high P1dB rivals traditional active FET mixers while O offering a much smaller 14.8mm2 standard IC footprint and no DC bias.
